Description: Starts with a small slope down at the edge of the parking lot to a fallen tree,there is a one way ramp to a 1.5ft drop but it needs some maintainence on holding it down currently.The trail winds through the thick forest near some houses and streets and then comes through a park with water available.From there it is on and off some roads but gets to a part with a 8ft. wall that elevates the trail for almost half a mile.shortly after that, the trail hops back out on the road and if you follow that, it heads into another trail section that I had never seen and is relatively new.Nice singletrack with a loop around a body of water that I really couldn't see.Nice fun ride and good for a bit over 5 miles out and back.Not too terribly technical but you will find some roots to contend with.

TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

Nice quick ride in the middle of Gainesville. Head out the back of the parking lot and take the first right on the trail…Some singletrack and in and out of roads, some roots in parts but not difficult by any means. If you just want a real quick 4-5 miles than it will serve its purpose.
